This display reflects an early draft manuscript of Sokoloff's A Dictionary of Jewish Palestinian Aramaic, first edition. For additions and corrections in the second printed edition, please view our online text here. A third edition (2017) is now available, but it lacks the very valuable indexes of the earlier ones. They are available online, however (see the "CONTENTS" page of that edition).
צדי n.m. desolation, wilderness (→ √צדי , צדו ; Sy ܨܕܝܐ LS 621, MH 2 צדי PRKVar 273:10) sg. דלא תהוי ארעא צדי so that the land should not be a desolation TN Ex 23:29; ib. Lev 26:33; כל יומין דהיא צדי מנכון ib. 34 [H כל ימי השמה ]; 35; צדי מן דיור a desolation without an inhabitant ib. Gen 44:18 This form is consistently used in TN as opposed to → צדו in FT. The existence of both forms in other A dialects precludes the possibility of assuming a graphic confusion.
